I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'unusually self-important members ignore patron' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'place full of hollywood types' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'place' could be 'set' (synonyms) and 'set' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'film' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for filmset that I've seen before include "Cinema stage" , "Cinema studio set-up" , "Cinematic scenery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
